Abstract : The report summaries are arranged by the budget function categories by which federal funds are appropriated and identified in the President's budget. Two indexes are included. The Committees of Jurisdiction index can be used to identify GAO findings and recommendations made to agencies for which committees have appropriation and oversight responsibility. GAO report titles are also listed. The Recommendation Addressee Index can be used to identify the same information by agencies to whom recommendations are addressed. Details on these findings and recommendations can be found in the individual GAO reports cited. Although copies of those reports were previously provided to both the Congress and the agencies involved, this summary information should be useful to your committees in reviewing agencies' budget requests and operations. Please contact our Office of Congressional Relations if you wish us to suggest specific questions to be asked in appropriations hearings on the items summarized or if you need additional information.
